new orleans ghost tour?
Taking a trip to new orleans and wanted to go on a ghost tour. Never been on anything like this before, but I thought it would be fun. I thought it would be easy to pick one but I didn’t realize there were SO MANY to choose from. Any suggestions on which one(s) to go on, from personal experiences preferably. Please explain. Thanks!
Haunted History hands down. Jonathan is popular with a lot of folks but inho they are all great tour guides and you can’t go wrong with any of them.
It’s a walking tour where the guide takes you to areas where actual hauntings occur and explains the events leading to the haunting. There will be none of that turning off lights and someone in another room knocking on the wall stuff. These are actual stories that most natives grow up hearing from their maw maws. The guides are extremely knowledgable in local history; many are reenactors for local historical groups. So if you are looking for entertainment and something that isn’t hokey this is the company you want to use.

Second to Haunted History Tours. Very interesting, and even if you have read about these stories before, it’s fun to hear the (slightly hammed) up stories while walking around in the French Quarter darkness. Walking around in the Quarter darkness alone is not recommended, so ths is a wonderful way to spend the evening, walking around, making bar stops, enjoying a cocktail while listening to the ghost stories of these fabulous buildings.
